Your symptoms probably indicate viral fever/illness.
However as you may have secondary bacterial infection you need to take:

1) Tablet azithromycin 500 mg once a day for three days
2) Tablet cetrizine twice daily for 3-5 days
3) Betadine gargles thrice a day with lukewarm water
4) Vitamin C Tablet once a day for 10 days
